Why didn't he say "motherfucker" in Star Wars? Here he was fighting this crusty old white Sith lord and didn't just let out, "Get your pasty cracker ass over here, Motherfucker!" Or what was really needed, "Shut the fuck up, Jar Jar! I can't believe I get killed off in Episode III, and your retarded fishy ass is still alive at the end of the movie!"

Although, if it'll be on Adult Swim, they'll bleep out all the cursing, and actually leave the bleeps in it on the DVD release.

That's usually only the case with original series. Afro Samurai has been in the works for a while now and it's not really an American project. Adding Samuel L Jackson is a start, but I really hope the drop a lot of the lame crap from the source material or else a lot of people may end up being disappointed.

So you, Isukun, Mr. Anime Snob, are saying that the dubbed American version might be better than the original Japanese version?

Actually, I said nothing of the sort. I was just saying the Afro Samurai franchise never sounded all that promising to me. By source material, I'm refering to the series of action figures the manga and anime are based on.

I've never read Afro Samurai yet. However, I've seen quite a few Japanese mangas featuring black dudes as the protagonists. So, I don't really consider this anime as something new or special. But I'm not sure if this anime will be accepted by the black community because I know some mangas tend to portray black characters as annoying characters or fools.

Eunice P…I'm not sure if this anime will be accepted by the black community because I know some mangas tend to portray black characters as annoying characters or fools.

Afro Samurai manga was first published in 1998.

I've always noticed that the black people in anime tend to have ridiculously large lips compared to other people which is somewhat akin to the fatlipped drawings of sambos that we now consider pretty derogatory because like Eunice said, sambos usually showed black people only as childish/foolish type characters that unkowningly needed the caring guidance of their white masters.

That because manga (since the begging) borrows stuff from western cartoons, that's one of those things that sicked.
